  1. Yo navygz19, I still got 2 used wheels. If you only have the sport stripes (2 skinny lines) the wheels have enough meat to get the job done. PM me a mailing address and I mail them to you free.

     

    I have no stripes on any cars so really have no use for them any more.

  2. Where do I get one of these wheels? Is it like a Dremel type thing?

     

    Pinstripe Removal

     

    The one I have will work on a drill, it was purchased from an Auto Detailer shop. They are not shelf items, but any locally owned shops will probably sell too you.

     

    Go to the closest Auto window tint shop and ask them to sell you one. Don't pay more than $15 bucks for two of them.

  3. Hey k9sar I have your street address from the ECU you got me. Good thing your a fast shipper. WAVEY

     

    A disgruntled shopper might post where to pick up a free skid plate!

     

    Can't wait for the pics. PS I may be headed to Philly for 2 weeks late June or Early July.

  4. don't accidentally drive around town on a 90 degree sunny summer day with your with your lights on like a dork.

     

    How'd I do that? :crazy: Company policy prohibits the unauthorized use of the internet. I usually don't preview post at work afraid if I spend too much time I will get busted.

     

    Anyway this is Jay's post, lets talk about roof lights. Lightem' if you gotem' :aok:

  5. Using the relay diagram I ran main power from battery thru floor on passenger side. Drilled hole for access to cab. Painted hole with primer and sealed with Marine goop. Placed relay in center console w/ e-brake. placed switch on center console on driver side of e-brake. (keeps pesty passengers from pressing your buttons) Continued main wiring up driver side behind door. Being a 2dr the 4x4 emblem pops out and you can get wire out of cab thru this access. Ground from lights followed same route as main power. Grounded at mounting bolt for driver seat. Power for the switch to relay was ran under driver side carpet to fuse box. I simply wedged the end of wire in with the fuse for the wipers. (probably not professional but very effective) Lights will only function when ignition is on. However there is nothing to keep me from looking like a dork. I do that quite naturally.

    roof lights

     

    Removing the front seat will save a lot time.

  6. I can take the starter back out and confirm it works by hot-wiring while not installed. But I can drag the Pathy in Neutral wheels roll fine. Put in gear the wheels lock. I took this to mean engine is seized.

     

    OK, that does sound bad. Though you meant, 4-hi, didn't you?

     

    I put in 4hi the first time but was actually in neutral. Got tired of screwing with it and just dropped in 4lo and 4th gear. Figured if shifter was all the way down I wouldn't mistake 4hi for neutral. Didn't get home til after dark today, so I will try again a couple more times. remove oil pan like k9sar suggested. also try to drag in 4hi to break free.

  7. I'm pretty sure I'm in over my head. Engine is seized. Tried pulling, just drug the back wheels. Put in 4lo and 4th gear. Drug all four wheels. Was not expecting it to be seized. I have had diesel sitting in for a week.

     

    must now consider parting her out. I will drink a bottle of merlot and grill a ribeye while I sulk and mull it over. The income tax check came in and the boss wants her bathroom remodeled.

     

    I will keep ears open for suggestions. I've heard of pulling motor and using heat and hammer to persuade. I don't have room, tools or time to do right.

    If I get to parting it out I will post new thread.

     

    :( -alcohol- :beer: in that order. anybody got any cheese?

  8. Oh well starter won't turn! I hear the solenoid click, but no turn. gave a couple taps, no different. i'm afraid to tap while juice is on. The valve covers and air intake are off and engine full of diesel. I will get key made and drag in gear to make sure all water is out.

  9. plastic plugs .....you might need a few packs of 2 sizes

     

    2 sizes as in longer length or larger diameter? The new liner is about .375", a lot thicker than the old. The plastic plugs weren't long enough to engage. I agree it would look better, it they make them longer I will look into it. As far as looks you practically have to remove the tire to see them.

  10. Nice UCA'S.

     

    I just cut up some semi truck flaps and used two pieces per side to cover up the fenderwells

     

    Actually you were my inspiration from a post probably a year ago. Went to the J/Y and starting cutting the mud flaps off an RV. This vagrant looking guy comes out cussing that i'm tearing up his house. I guess they let him live there to watch the place at night. He was pretty scary. Never went back and started looking for another way.

  11. A buddy talked me into buying a pathy. My first 4x4 ever. Got stuck 20' from the road on my first trail. Same buddy convinced me I needed the tallest tires that would fit. That internet search brought me here!

     

    Never been member of any other kind of forums. Never chatted.

     

    All the answers are right here! :D

  12. When I drained oil about a quart of water came out with it. no rust thankfully. I can use air and wd40 on the top. this will not do anything with water in the bottom (or will it?). Maybe draining oil pan and changing oil filter enough I don't know. I am in it over my head, but can see the surface barely.

  13. Hey guys I'm ready to flush engine for flooded '92 pathy. I have removed starter and want to put direct lead to a battery. Which is positive which is ground. I want to run a lead wire from positive battery post to starter connector on the bottom of picture. then run lead wire from stud w/ nut at top to the negative post on battery.

     

    I would use jumper cable clamp on the negative battery post as a manual stop/start.

     

    Could someone please confirm postive/negative side to starter? I will accept any advice regarding a safer and smarter solution.

     

    BTW. The '92 has been flooded. currently the ECU is pulled as is Dash and practically every interior connector. I now have valve covers, plugs, air-intake pulled. ready to fill with diesel and flush. Any help is appreciated, Dan
